Re: North Sea Recon & Other Activity
"Fledgling Eagles" by Christopher Shores has detailed info on the air war during the Phoney war, which wasnīt phoney in the air.
"The Right of the Line" has more general info about the perils Costal Command faced early in the war. Their main plane the Anson could not even reach the coast of Norway and carried only very few anti-sub bombs, which happened to be useless anyway. The Hudson was a big improvement in terms of range. An anti shipping capability didnīt exist until the Beauforts and Beaufighters were introduced.
